经济学家预计美联储只会降息25个基点

币界网报道:

根据大多数接受调查的经济学家的说法,预计美联储将在即将召开的9月会议上将利率下调25个基点。

近80%的人认为,美联储将满足于适度降息,将利率降至5%至5.25%的范围内。

只有少数人认为更大幅度的降息即将到来,计划外利率调整的可能性很小,约为10%。

美联储政策制定者目前并不太热衷于激进的举措。为什么?嗯,7月份的就业报告有点令人失望。招聘速度放缓,失业率达到近三年来的最高点。

尽管如此,以杰罗姆·鲍威尔为首的美联储领导人仍坚持己见。他们专注于两件事:保持高就业率和将通货膨胀率降至2%的目标。

美联储并不着急

在看到最新的就业数据后,摩根大通和花旗集团等华尔街的一些重量级人物现在呼吁下个月降息0.5个百分点。

期货投资者似乎也同意,年底前定价将总共下调100个基点。他们认为美联储可能会在9月份开始降息50个基点。

但经济学家们并不买账。他们认为,美联储不仅会在9月,还会在11月、12月,甚至到2025年初,采取较小幅度的25个基点的降息措施。

每个人心中最大的问题是:通货膨胀发生了什么?7月份美国通胀可能略有上升,但不足以吓到美联储。

消费者价格指数(CPI)预计将比6月份上涨0.2%。这一小幅上涨仍将使年通胀率保持在2021年初以来最慢的水平之一。

就业报告给降息决定带来压力

通胀的缓解给了美联储官员一些喘息的空间,让他们在不失去对劳动力市场关注的情况下考虑降息。

但我们不要过于兴奋——招聘正在放缓,失业率不断攀升。7月份的就业报告显示,美国雇主正在加大招聘力度。

这已经敲响了警钟,因为经济衰退可能即将到来。如果CPI数据如预期的那样,这将证实通货膨胀仍在朝着正确的方向发展——下降。

经济学家认为,在6月份令人惊讶的低读数之后,我们可能会看到小幅上升,但没什么好担心的。这可能是由于核心服务成本上升,不包括美联储密切关注的住房。

由于运费上涨,商品价格也有可能上涨,但我们只能拭目以待。

尽管市场和经济最近发生了戏剧性的变化,但大多数经济学家(69%)认为美国将设法避免经济衰退。他们押注于“软着陆”,即经济放缓但不会崩溃。

另有10%的人认为软着陆是可能的,但前提是美联储采取迅速、积极的行动。22%的受访者认为经济衰退是不可避免的。

Cache hit rate reaches 99.93%, the best Harness for DeepSeek is here, GitHub pulls in 86k Stars

The open-source programming agent "Pi" has surged in popularity on GitHub, amassing around 86,000 stars, largely due to its exceptional efficiency when paired with DeepSeek's models. A key highlight is its remarkably high cache hit rate of approximately 99.93% for input tokens when using DeepSeek. This minimal cache miss rate of 0.07% means most repeated context is reused, drastically reducing computational costs. In a benchmark test by Composio comparing eight major agent harnesses running DeepSeek V4 Flash, Pi achieved the lowest average cost per successful task at about $0.028, significantly outperforming others like Claude Code, which was nearly seven times more expensive. Pi functions as a streamlined "harness" or workspace for AI models, providing core tools like file read/write and command execution while allowing users to add extensions. Its simplicity and specific adaptation for DeepSeek's API—handling its unique reasoning content and tool call formats—make it highly compatible. This design maximizes the efficiency of DeepSeek's low-cost tokens and powerful caching mechanism, as the agent's linear workflow avoids unnecessary changes to earlier prompt sections. While DeepSeek has officially announced its own harness project targeting Claude Code, Pi remains a versatile, user-customizable platform supporting multiple AI providers. It offers developers a cost-effective and flexible alternative, setting a high bar for future official solutions.

When Meme Traffic Meets RWA: The Financial Ambitions of Hyperliquid and Robinhood

When Meme traffic meets RWA: Hyperliquid and Robinhood's Financial Ambitions This article explores the transformative role of speculation in financial market evolution, arguing it can provide the liquidity and capital foundation for mature, compliant businesses. The analysis draws parallels to historical examples, like 19th-century Chicago grain markets, where speculators provided necessary counterparty liquidity for farmers, eventually establishing a global pricing infrastructure. The author examines contemporary cases in crypto. The launch of Uniswap's Pools meme token platform on Robinhood Chain—originally built for tokenized stock trading—demonstrates how speculative meme trading can drive significant user adoption and liquidity. Despite initial volatility, this traffic can seed future, more substantial financial activities. Similarly, Hyperliquid, which began with high-leverage crypto trading, has successfully migrated its speculative model to real-world assets (RWAs) like equities, commodities, and indices. By July, RWA perpetual contract volumes on Hyperliquid surpassed its crypto trading for the first time, showcasing how speculation can build new, all-weather pricing layers. The core thesis is that speculation itself is neutral. Its long-term value and sustainability are determined by the underlying assets it engages with. While pure bubbles collapse, speculation anchored to valuable assets—be it wheat, gold, or equities—can evolve into foundational market infrastructure. Both Hyperliquid’s RWA platform and Robinhood’s strategy of leveraging meme coin enthusiasm to build towards on-chain securities trading exemplify this potential pathway from speculative frenzy to structured financial utility.

NVIDIA HBM in Short Supply, Next-Gen GPUs Limited, but This Storage Drive Steals the Spotlight

The article discusses how AI Agents are transforming storage from a passive repository into an active component within AI inference and operation loops. As Agents perform continuous tasks involving models, memory, tools, and logs, data storage needs to evolve beyond simple block devices. The concept of "functional SSDs" is introduced, where capabilities like automatic encryption, compression, indexing, and memory management are embedded closer to the storage medium. This shift is driven by the need to handle Agent-specific data chains—including context, tool trajectories, and long-term memory—more efficiently. The piece analyzes current trends like AI SSDs from companies such as Phison (aiDAPTIV), Longsys (SPU+iSA), and Maxio, which are beginning to participate in the AI data path by managing model weights, KV cache, and prefetching. It further explores the future re-division of labor across the memory hierarchy: HBM for core compute, emerging High Bandwidth Flash (HBF) for read-intensive workloads, DRAM/CXL for mutable state, and functional SSDs for persistent, governed objects like Agent Memory. The conclusion is that storage will become integral to Agent capability, moving from just saving data to enabling next-step actions. The industry is poised to develop along three paths: functionalized SSDs, storage nodes tailored for Agents, and a re-architected, tiered memory system optimized for access patterns, security, and cost-per-token efficiency.

Breaking: Claude's Attempt on Riemann Hypothesis "Fails," but Accidentally Sets 37-Year Math Record

**AI Makes a Major Mathematical Leap While Failing at the Riemann Hypothesis** A research version of Anthropic's Claude AI was tasked with "seriously attempting" the legendary Riemann Hypothesis, a 167-year-old unsolved problem in mathematics. While it ultimately did not prove the hypothesis, its attempt yielded a significant breakthrough. Claude managed to improve the proven lower bound for the proportion of Riemann zeta function zeros lying on the critical line from 41.6% to 67.2%. This marks a 25.6 percentage point increase, described by observers as potentially the most substantial advance in analytic number theory in over a decade, considering that the previous record had only improved by 0.8 percentage points over 37 years. To achieve this, Claude generated and discarded roughly 650 initial ideas before orchestrating a day-and-a-half-long effort involving about 60 sub-agents. These agents executed 2,400 shell commands, wrote hundreds of Python scripts, and performed thousands of numerical checks. After finding the potential result, Claude initiated self-verification, downloaded papers to check for prior work, and independently re-derived the finding. It then suggested writing a formal paper. The result has been reviewed by Anthropic's internal mathematicians, who also collaborated with Claude to produce a formal, machine-checkable proof using the Lean theorem prover. External experts in the field have also reviewed the manuscript. Anthropic clarifies that the method likely does not directly lead to a full proof of the Riemann Hypothesis, but it demonstrates that advanced AI models are beginning to engage with genuine, open-ended research problems at the frontier of mathematical knowledge.
